She crashes in a blizzard. He offers her shelter. But when she finds a woman in his freezer, she'll seduce him to survive... or kill him.
Hailey's on the run from her stalker ex, but crashing her car in a blizzard to avoid a deer was not in her escape plan. Neither was hobbling to a remote cabin and taking shelter with Cameron, a handsome, witty stranger who tends to her wound and makes her feel like she's dropped into her favorite romance novel at the worst possible moment. She vows not to sleep with him (but is absolutely considering it).
Until she finds a dead woman in his basement freezer.
Now, snowbound in a cabin creaking with something ghostly, seducing a killer might be her only way out alive. That, or killing him. She's been hunted before and won't let a man trap her again. But as Cameron cracks open her guarded heart, she starts to doubt her own judgement. Is she falling for a monster or is he guilty at all? Is she overthinking every red flag or trying to justify her feelings? The closer she gets to the truth, the harder she falls, and the more she feels like she's losing her mind. But if he's not the killer, someone else is... and they're watching.
From bestselling author Diana Urban comes a fast-paced, addictive psychological thrill ride perfect for fans of Freida McFadden who want their mind-blowing twists with a side of steam. It's a romantic suspense with heat like Verity, steamier than The Housemaid, lighter than Haunting Adeline.
